Let's divide 971923 by 2
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 971923.

Moving on to step 1:
2 can be fit into 9 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 8 from 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

On to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 2, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 16 from 17 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 2

Let's proceed to step 3:
2 goes into 11 5 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 485.0
If we take 10 away from 11, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 2

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 19 by 2, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4859.0
Subtracting 18 from 19 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 2

Advancing to step 5:
The number 2 fits into 12 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48596.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 12 from 12.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 3 / 2

Advancing to step 6:
The number 2 fits into 3 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 485961.0
Subtracting 2 from 3 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 2, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 485961.5
Deduct 10 from 10 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 485961.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 485961.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 485961.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
